Request for exceptional leave
If your child will not attend school for any planned reason (excluding medical/dental appointments, where it has not been possible to book them outside of school hours) a request for exceptional leave should be submitted to the school office as soon as possible.
From September 2024, unauthorised leave of absence of more than 10 sessions or 5 days, in a period of 10 school weeks could result in the Local Authority issuing a penalty notice.
